Phil Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 1. Where the fuck have you been? 2. Why did it take five years to drag you out from under that Colorado boulder you've movedunder? 3. How far along into the 2012 season are you, currently? 4. Rank these sports by order of whiteness: rowing, skiing, golf, polo, curling. 5. Is tea soup?

Jules Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 1) I've been in Colorado since 2018, but moving to Michigan for family reasons in the next few months. I'm going to miss being in the mountains. 2) I'm blaming this on Signal. 3) It would be most unfortunate if we fired Tortorella and replaced him with someone like Vigneault. We'll never get close to a Cup. 4) Polo is the whitest > Curling > Rowing > Golf > Skiing. Probably. 5) No. But you could argue that tea is herb stock. Stock isn't soup though.

Ozzy Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Welcome back Jules!! Great to have you in the mix!!! This crowd is pretty wild! I'm Ozzy, and here's my 5: 1. How you liking Gallant? 2. Do you visit the board often, now that you're back? 3. What forum member do you remember best, that's still up here? 4. Current favorite Ranger? 5. How about sticking around for a while and being one of the gang again?? The guys seemed to be asking for your return for a while. I'm glad to see you gave them their wish! Welcome back, dude!!

He's not the x and o's kinda guy I prefer, but he brought some swagger and confidence to the crew. I just worry he isn't the right guy to develop Laf and Kakko. I visit the board occasionally and will try to stick around. Ha, I'm not going to fall into the trap of naming favorites, because I'll never hear the end of that, but I've been around various boards with some of these people for 15+ years and it's just been great to stay in touch about life. Tough one on the current favorite. It's probably most awesome to see Kreider be who we always wanted him to be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew a Penalty Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 What's your worst roller coast experience? Whats a Dutch word that should find its way into English lexicon? You're trapped inside of a football stadium with a moose. Your choices are to fight it or attempt to tame it. How do you proceed? Could you fit a hockey puck in your ass for $5 million? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How will the Netherlands do in the upcoming World Cup? Ice fishing? yay or nay? How will the Rangers do in the playoffs? Really fucking close to the wildfire. The East Troublesome Fire in 2020 (until last month's Marshall Fire the most devastating fire in Colorado history) was within half a mile from our house. We know at least a dozen families who lost everything. Over 250 houses in my community were nothing but dust after that night. We evacuated down a road with 100ft flames creeping down the hillside towards us. Our street just got really lucky. I'm moving to the Ann Arbor area. Close to Big Ten sports, close to the Detroit airport and within three hours from Chicago. Not bad at all. The Netherlands won't go far. Team lacks the top end talent to compete. Depay is no Robben. Ice fishing isn't for me, but I am an avid fly fisherman in the summer. Already booked a Yellowstone fishing trip for this summer. Rangers will be lucky to make it out of the first round. Too reliant on the PP. 5 hours ago, Phil said: @Jules, why do these exist? And what other freakish consumer products are the Dutch responsible for? I wish I knew, but I've seen them (but they aren't installed anymore). Oh, and black licorice. 4 hours ago, G1000 said: 1.

Meeting a bunch of the players before a game at Minnesota that we won handily. It was a great weekend to St. Paul when I was on exchange at Wisconsin and guys like Danny G and Cally couldn't have been nicer. Ha, you may not remember him, but how about Dutch soccer striker Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink. Also, there's a Dutch politician named Tiny Kox. 3 hours ago, Drew a Penalty said: What's your worst roller coast experience? Whats a Dutch word that should find its way into English lexicon? You're trapped inside of a football stadium with a moose. Your choices are to fight it or attempt to tame it. How do you proceed? Could you fit a hockey puck in your ass for $5 million? Worst? I've done some wooden rollercoasters that left my rib cage aching and I've been puked on by a child in front of me before. No bueno. Two words: "gezellig" and "uitwaaien". Gezellig is a word that describes a cosy, friendly setting and describes either a setting or situation as pleasant. Uitwaaien translates into letting the wind blow thoughts out of your head. It's for going outside on a walk to clear your head a bit. I have seen a person vs. moose encounter in person here in Colorado and they are not to be fought. I would tame it with food and by staying far away otherwise. They're murder horses.
